What is the correct way for a cheerleader to stand in between cheers? Arms/hands/legs?

Question by Jim S: What is the correct way for a cheerleader to stand in between cheers? Arms/hands/legs?
My friend has this bet with another friend of his about how a cheerleader is supposed to stand in between cheers (as far as where their arms/hands/legs are supposed to be) at a sporting event (in particular high school or college). I told them, I’d ask the question online and try to settle the bet. If you can be as specific as possible, I’d appreciate it, as $ 20 is on the line. Thanks!

“At rest.” Backhands on waist/hips, right knee bent foward, weight on left foot, back arched, smile and catch your breath..

Both should stand facing the game/action with their backs straight (no slouching) and a girl should be in “cheer position” with feet (mostly) together and hands fisted/on hips, a guy can be a little more relaxed. Clapping is okay but you know, digging at your butt or checking out your fingernails would not have been accepted at IWU in Indiana
